Update
Thanks for feedback and thoughts on this build I've been messing around with a lot of different versions. My immortal style is less than 3 weeks old but has made a lot of progress I can tell a lot of you are using it on the ladder as well people now know what I'm doing. This new style I feel is better overall you can scout everything and decide what to do while being safe from all forms of terran all-ins

9 pylon
11 1st chrono
13 2nd chrono
13 gateway
15 chrono
16 pylon near your ramp so that you can cannon if need be & scout with this probe
17 build double gas with the same probe will allow you to single file every probe into gas giving you extra minerals.
18 chrono and build a cyber
21 build a stalker chorno it add a sentry
27 robo

This is were I changed the build get a observer 1st chrono it out and add 2 gateways then add a forge. This style you will be able to see what hes doing and respond to anything compared to a BO loss to something like a fake FE 1-1-1.

Old Style

+ Show Spoiler +
Introduction:

I'm Hister.526 NA masters this build was originally started to blindly counter 1-1-1. Then TLO stomped all over me and I realized the old style was to weak. So I changed up the composition and build order with great success this is a insanely powerful all-in.

Why use it:

This style works great vs 1-1-1, FE and all one base terrans with the exception of a terran who leaves his second oc in his main until he has a huge mmm ball.

Basic Build Order

9 pylon
11 1st chrono
13 2nd chrono
13 gateway
15 chrono
16 pylon near your ramp so that you can place a cannon that is ranged in middle of the ramp.
17 build double gas with the same probe will allow you to single file every probe into gas giving you extra minerals.
18 chrono and build a cyber
20 forge
21 build a stalker chorno it add a sentry
24 3rd pylon
27 robo


Rules of the mid game:
+ Show Spoiler +
If I scout mm coming I'll get a cannon up and keep an eye out for scv rine all-ins this can stop them but you have to be on the map to see them coming.

There is no one set way to build up the best unit composition it will tend to totally depend on what your terran opponent getting. You will however want to get out at least 5 immortals and 1 observer if you cant see what hes doing.

You want to end up with 5 gateways 1 robo with +1 armor for the timing attack to be dominate around 80 food vs a FE.

If you're vs a 1-1-1 drop 2 cannons around your mineral line so you can keep your forces in the middle slowing down his push.

If he sits on one base you'll have to expo this build transition's into the late game with little effort required can chose to go +2 armor chargelot with archcons or colossus.

If you built a observer but he just went mm Fe anyway don't let it go to waste put a pylon by his cliff and when you attack warp a zealot or 2 into his main mineral line.

Can't watch replays atm, so my question is, when do you expand? Your post mentions going up to 5 gateways, which I'm assuming means there's an expand somewhere in the mix, didn't notice it in the text though.

Looks strong. It'd be nice if you uploaded a replay against 1/1/1 since you say that was the original intent of the build.

It is an all-in as mentioned in the OP. And apparently it can defeat Fnaticrain who is #1 GM on the US server. I love the chat in that game. You tell him you're going to all in if he expands, so he expands and you all-in and win. I also love the fact the initial attack force is like 4 Immortals and 5 Sentries, not a single Zealot or Stalker moving down the map.

I also really enjoyed the game vs Picnic, his SCV-Marine all-in comes up and sees a Cannon and Sentry and backs off. Then he tries a bunker contain while you're building mass Immortals. Talk about being hard countered.

Hister, your builds are among the best I've seen, amazing work man. Thank you.

It is well known that Bczofupros is fnaticRain. Obvious smurf account, I don't think a non-pro player could ever hold #1 GM of NA, EU or KR. Maybe on SEA since it is such a small server.

Either way, look at his account on NA server (just go to the Grandmaster ladder, he is currently #1), and go to his match history. Search for 1vs1, and just 8 hours ago he lost to Hister on Xel Naga. His record is 149-24 too.

You start your WG + armor research at odd times (like after robo fac finishes, or when immortal is half way done), is this intentional? Do you really need that 50/50 and 100/100 to prioritize the robo fac? I'm actually more concerned of the WG research, thanks :D

...This build looks insane. Will definitely try this out!! Immortals are hardly ever used in PvT early on, my jaw dropped as ~4 immortals and a bunch of sentries with a handful of zealots slice through almost equal food of mm + bunkers....

The key is that Immortals are insanely good against bio. And thats awesome. Finally terrans will start to risk alot when fast expanding and bunkering around. Great build!

Wow. I'm a long time lurker of this site and I made an account just to reply to this thread. That's one of the nastiest builds I've seen in a long time. Great job, time for me to start laddering.

Why do we drop 2 cannons around our mineral line? is this to stop banshee harass? Wouldn't it be more useful to drop them near the other cannon or even in the middle of the base next to the gateways and robo?

P.s. Totally tried this build just a little while ago vrs a fe terran. Wrecked him. Thanks ^ ^
You cannot always get what you want. But if you try real hard you can get what you need.

Unfortunately, delaying your stalker as long as you do means a single reaper will just kill you.
